- Q)using concept of ordinal utility theory, derive two demand curves-one rhat keeps money income constant and another that keeps consumer's utility level constant Explain this early but not the copy paste answer provides.Please no written by hand and no image Assume that a consumer purchases a combination of products Y and Z and that the MUy ÷ Py = 30 ÷ 2 and MUz ÷ Pz = 45 ÷ 3. To maximize utility, without spending more money, the consumer should Answer choices: purchase less of Y and more of Z. purchase more of Y and less of Z. purchase more of both Y and Z. make no change in the quantities Y and Z.If you had a vacation budget of $3000 to take vacation(s) this fall, use utility analysis theory to predict which vacation that you would participate in this fall. You need to explain why you would take this vacation instead of another one that you were considering. Assume that you must take the vacation or all life on Earth would perish. I made that last assumption to prevent you from saying that you would just spend it to pay down bills or put it in savings. Note:- Do not provide handwritten solution. Maintain accuracy and quality in your answer. Take care of plagiarism. Answer completely. You will get up vote for sure.
- 2) Is the marginal utility of money income uniquely defined? 3) Examine the responses of an electricity consumer to changes in the connection charge and prices of electricity.I need help with this homeowrk question i am unsure if i have it correct. Suppose a consumer’s utility function is given by U(X,Y) = X^1/2*Y^1/2. Also, the consumer has $36 to spend, and the price of good X is P(x) = $4. Let good Y be a “composite” good (good Y is the “numeraire”) whose price is P(y) = $1. So, on the Y-axis, we are graphing the amount of money that the consumer has available to spend on all other goods for any given value of X.if P(x) increases to 9 and the new bundle of the customers demands are 2 units of x and 18 units of y, how much additional money would the consumer need in order to have the same utility level after the price change as before the price change? (Note: this amount of additional money is called the Compensating Variation.) and of the total change in the quantity demanded of good X, how much is due to the substitution effect and how much is due to the income effect? (Note: since there is an increase in the price of good X, these values will be…Problem 4 - Costless Magical MacGuffinConsider a consumer that lives only for two periods. He works in period 1 (and gets income Y1) and moves up thecorporate ladder in period 2 (and gets income Y1 < Y2). This consumer has the usual preferences over time: u(C1) +βu(C2)Assume this consumer cannot borrow.1. What is the consumption in period 1 and period 2? Display graphically. Show the corresponding utilitycurve.Assume that now the consumer is allowed to save or borrow.2. Write down the new budget constraint. What is the consumption in period 1 and period 2? Displaygraphically. Could the consumer be worse off? Could the consumer be better off? Draw budget constraintssuch that for one of them consumer prefers to borrow and for the other - prefers to save.Assume once again that a consumer cannot borrow, but can borrow and immediately sell some ‘MacGuffins’, and in the next period, the consumer must buy back the MacGuffins to return to the lender. Assume that MacGuffins trade at P1 >…
- True/False/Uncertain and Explain The current price of chicken is $5 per pound and the current price of beef is $10 per pound. Raúl’s MU of chicken is 10 and his MU of beef is 15. Raúl could increase his utility by consuming more chicken and less beef.I NEED HELP WITH PART B! (a) A consumer has utility u(x,y,z) = ln(x) + 2ln(y) + 3ln(z) over the three goods, x,y and z and pz=1. Optimally she consumes 30 units of z. What is her income? How much money does she spend on x? (HINT: MUx = 1/x, MUy= 2/y, MUz = 3/z and remeber the "equivalent bang for the buck" condition). (b) Forget about (a). Suppose you have t= 29 hours in total to spend on 3 projects X,Y and Z to make some money. If you spend x hours on project X, you make 2 sqrt(x) dollars; If you spend y hours on project Y, you make 3 sqrt(y) dollars; If you spend z hours on project Z, you make 4sqrt(z) dollars; Writing down your "utility function" u(x,y,z) and the constraint, solve the utility maximization problem; what is the optimal amount of time to spend on x? on y? on z?A person has a 2-period utility consumption function U(c1, c2), with a budget function W = c1+c2/1+ra. Explain with pictures how one should choose c1 and c2 such that MRS(from c1 to c2) equals 1+r.b. Also explain with pictures how when the individual receives income, whileconditions at that time was a crisis.
- Application of Consumer Theory. Derive and explain the Dual Problem of the Consumer Theory assuming that and Pxx+Pyy=Bwill thumbs up solution, thank you :) Consider a consumer with an income of M = 200 in an economy with 2 goods. Let the prices be p1 = 7, and p2 = 12, respectively. Define the budget set facing the consumer. In a well labelled diagram, illustrate the budget set for the consumer. Find two bundles, (x1,x2) and (y1,y2) that the consumer can afford. Can the consumer afford the average of the two bundles in your example? Why or why not? Suppose the price of good 2 decreases to p2(prime) = 15. Can the consumer afford the two bundles you described before now? Why? Thank you1. In the theory of consumer behavior, certain axioms about the nature of preferences imply that indifference curves cannot cross. Which axioms imply this? Explain your answer using a diagram and using words. 2. A consumer decides not to buy a VCR when her income is $20,000. However, when her income rises to $30,000, she decides to buy one. In a single diagram, draw the budget lines and indifference curves to illustrate this situation (assume the VCR costs $300 in both time periods). Be sure to label your diagram completely. 3. An individual consumes products X and Y and spends $25 per time period. The prices of the two goods are $3 per unit for X and $2 per unit for Y. The consumer in this case has a utility function expressed as: U(X,Y) = 0.5XY MUX = 0.5Y MUY = 0.5X. a. Express the budget equation mathematically. b. Determine the values of X and Y that will maximize utility in the consumption of X and Y. c. Determine the total utility that will be generated per unit of time for…
